Adjustments Due to Weather and Fire Conditions

We hope this message finds you safe and well. Due to the serious weather and fire conditions in LA County, some of our teachers, students, and families are experiencing evacuations or are under the possibility of evacuations.

As a result, there may be course cancellations or substitute instructors for some classes over the next few days. We understand if your student is unable to attend class during this challenging time. Please know that we will provide recorded videos for any non-canceled classes your student missed to ensure continuity in learning.

For tutoring students, families will be notified via email or text if a tutor needs to cancel. If your student cannot attend a session, please cancel if possible.

We understand the challenges posed by these severe conditions, and sessions missed due to these circumstances can be rescheduled, provided the tutor can accommodate.

The safety and well-being of our community are our top priorities. If you have any concerns or need additional support, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Stay safe, and thank you for your understanding and flexibility.

Tutor

What inspired you to become a teacher, and what do you enjoy most about teaching your subject?

Hi! I am a veteran teacher with over 30 years of experience of working with children whether it be as an educator, assistant or tutor. I primarily worked in grades Kindergarten through fifth but have gained middle school experience as well. I retired in 2016 only to return in 2023 because I love working with students-especially in small groups or individually.

I’m a mother of a 15-year old daughter who has Aspergers and am a native to South Florida.

What are some of your hobbies or interests outside of the classroom?

I am involved in my church and groups linked to my church. I enjoy making jewelry and creating sticker designs using planners.

What was your favorite subject in school and why?

My favorite subject in college was speech and debate. I enjoyed taking topics, researching them, and defending them. Then taking the opposite stance on the same topic. It helped me to open my eyes and see life’s perspectives.

Anything else we should know about you?

I own a cat named Priscilla Jean Presley. Prissy, for short.
